Your day just keeps getting better!!!
I've never visited One Man's Dream, even though I keep telling myself I'm going to. I really, really have to try it next trip!
I'm eager to see the TCM updates to the Great Movie Ride, but I'm not an expert on GMR by any means so I'm not sure I'd notice anything was different!
Yay for running into Goofy and Pluto!!!
Aww... sorry about not catching that awesome genie/aladdin/jasmine meet and greet and not being able to catch Fantasmic
I CAN'T WAIT to hear about your MK day though!!!!!
Oh, I hope you do get to check out One Man's Dream on your trip!! I know you will appreciate it!! It's like when you read an amazing book, and you want to tell people about it, but you know that certain people just won't *get* it, so you have to be selective of who you tell, because now you're like, PROTECTIVE, of this book...yeah. It's like that. I know you will *get* One Man's Dream.
My heart was broken at missing out on Al, Jas, and Genie!! I would see them again later in the trip...*spoiler alert* The Genie was meeting with A & J in Adventureland! I missed meeting them again, but got a nice picture. That's near the end of our vacation though.
Loving your TR so far! What a great first day in DHS you've had!
It's always the way, when you don't want to wait for something, it always starts again or something happens just as you leave!
Can't wait to read about your early MK day!!
I'm glad you're enjoying it so far! Our DHS day ended up being one of my two favorite days. It just went so smoothly.
And I totally agree about the thing starting right when you give up...every time!
Joining in! Sounds like such a fun day at HS! You got great seats for Fantasmic, sorry that the technical delay made you guys leave
Welcome!!
We did have great seats at Fantasmic, and it was a bummer than we gave up and left. BUT...we were ok with leaving since we had to be up early the next morning.
So unfortunate that after waiting that long you didn't see the show. I'm doing the dinning package to avoid having to be in line so early, but keep second guessing myself. Lol!
I had considered the dining package too, even well after making our plans for the trip. I checked the availability off and on as close as 3 days before vacation. I think it's worth it for getting out of a lengthy wait. The first time I ever saw Fantasmic, the group I was with did the dining package.
I read on here the other day that they are testing an alternate way to get into Fantasmic, eliminating FPs and doing some kind of special kiosk system??
The same thing happened to us with Fantasmic, due to an issue it actually stopped twice. We did decide to stick it out as we were not coming back but lots of people left. I am really looking forward to the Great Movie Ride. I have actually never been on it and I know just from watching videos on YouTube the boys are going to love it! A Smore cupcake...that is awesome.
It stopped TWICE?? That's frustrating! I"m glad you got to stick it out and see the whole thing, though! It's been years since I'd seen it, but I do enjoy it.
The Great Movie ride is really cool, in my opinion. And yes...the s'more cupcake is awesome!! I could eat one every day!
I'm down with this TR...looks like you guys are having a good time!
Just have to say that this pic makes it look like he is biting Mickey's nose!
Too bad about Fantasmic, but I sure hope you get to see it later
It DOES look like he's eating Mickey's nose! Last year, there was a photo of him on Dumbo, and it looked like the water from the fountain thing in the center of the ride was pouring directly out of his nose. We laughed because we are mature.
The story behind that particular Mickey photo is...X had just asked him if he had marshmallow lasers (from a youtube video song, space unicorn, i think), and I think the "friend of Mickey" knew EXACTLY what X was talking about because he made appropriate hand gestures, mimed laughing, and gave him that high five.
Following! Even with the Fantasmic disappointment, though, it sounds like you guys did a lot! Your morning was super-impressive (and now I am very hungry for pot pie!).
We had an awesome day at DHS! One of my favorite days from the trip. And that pot pie was very tasty!!
Loving your report, your updates are too funny! Ugh, the dreaded tour groups. I think we've all had our run-ins, and I'm hoping yours weren't too bad. Can't wait to read more!
I try to be funny! There are stunning successes and spectacular failures on that front!
The tour groups weren't *that* bad, but there were enough irritating moments during the week for me to want to throw things at their heads from time to time, LOL.
